A recent study out of France shows those who drink low or moderate amounts of alcohol are healthier than those who drink more — or who don’t drink at all.

The study, published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, evaluated all sorts of health data on 150,000 people, and the results are part of a growing body of research showing the possible health benefits of alcohol.
